Guides

How to choose, not what to buy.

Practical guides to the decisions Malaysian businesses actually face when choosing software. We make two of the products in these categories, and say so in every guide that touches them.

Why a software company publishes buying guides

There is an obvious problem with these pages: we sell two of the products in the categories they describe. A guide written by a vendor is a sales document unless it is written to survive being checked by someone who ends up buying from a competitor.

So there are three rules, and they are worth stating plainly.

We say who wrote it, on the page

Every guide that touches a category PLJONE competes in carries a note saying so, above the content rather than beneath it. If you read past it, you do so knowing.

We do not rank ourselves first

None of these guides is a list of “the best” anything. The useful question is which system fits how you actually trade, and that question has a different answer for a market stall and a three-station restaurant. Where our own product is relevant we say so at the end, with what it does not do stated alongside what it does.

We state the limits, including our own

The till-to-books sync between PLJ POS and PLJ Account is not live yet. That is a reason to choose something else if you need it today, and it is written on the guides and on the product pages rather than discovered during a trial. A limit you find for yourself costs more trust than one you were told.

On regulation, we point at the source

Where a guide touches Malaysian tax or e-Invoice requirements, it says what the general shape is and directs you to LHDN. What your business is required to do, and by when, is not something to learn from a vendor page — including this one.
